Description

This track shows alignments of Ricinus communis (ricCom1, Jul. 2011) to Arabidopsis thaliana (araTha1, May 2011)

Methods

The alignment was performed with blat with parameters:

-tileSize=11 -minScore=100 -minIdentity=98 -fastMap -ooc=araTha1.11.ooc
Each genome was partitioned into 5,000 base sequences with an overlap of 500 bases for the target sequence, and each part from target (araTha1) and query (ricCom1) were blatted to each other. The araTha1.11.ooc file was created:
blat araTha1.2bit /dev/null /dev/null -tileSize=11 \
      -makeOoc=araTha1.11.ooc -repMatch=100
The resulting alignments were 'chained' together for each araTha1 chromosome running 'axtChain' selecting chains with at least a minimum score of 1000 and linearGap 'medium' scoring matrix. Chain-Net results are created from the chained alignments with 'chainNet' and then 'liftOver' chain subsets extracted from those chain-net results with 'netChainSubset:
for C in chr1 chr2 chr3 chr3 chr5 chrCp chrMt
do
cat blatResults.${C}.*.psl \
  | axtChain -verbose=0 -linearGap=medium -psl stdin \
      araTha1.2bit ricCom1.2bit ${C}.chain
chainNet ${C}.chain \
    araTha1.chrom.sizes ricCom1.chrom.sizes \
    ${C}.net /dev/null
netChainSubset ${C}.net ${C}.chain stdout \
  | chainStitchId stdin stdout
done > araTha1.ricCom1.over.chain
The 'liftOver' chains were converted to a bigBed file via 'chainToPsl', 'pslToBed' and 'bedToBigBed':
chainToPsl -tMasked araTha1.ricCom1.over.chain \
  araTha1.chrom.sizes ricCom1.chrom.sizes araTha1.2bit ricCom1.2bit stdout \
    | pslToBed stdin stdout | sort -k1,1 -k2,2n > araTha1ToRicCom1.bed

bedToBigBed araTha1ToRicCom1.bed araTha1.chrom.sizes araTha1ToRicCom1.bb
